What ACTOR donors give in federal races

Small performing-arts pool, high repeat

$13,378,363 is the occupation-level dollar total. 52,289 is the itemization count. 1,461 is the donor-record count. Mean contribution size is about $256. Mean dollars per donor record are about $9,157. Repeat giving is about 36 itemizations per donor record.

52,289 lines from 1,461 records is a high-repeat pattern: a modest performing-arts pool generating many schedules. The per-donor mean of about $9,157 is an arithmetic result on that compact set, not typical residual income allocated to politics.

These means are not typical-check estimates. The packet has no SAG-AFTRA field, no film-versus-stage split, and no gift-size distribution.

ACTOR is not ARTIST and not MUSICIAN

ARTIST, MUSICIAN, ACTRESS, and PERFORMER — if those strings exist as separate keys — are not rolled into this total unless the bulk extract normalized them to ACTOR. This page cites only $13,378,363, 52,289 contributions, and 1,461 donors.

The FEC does not verify credits, union cards, or IMDb records. Voice actors, stage actors, and people who act as a side occupation can all type ACTOR. Occupation is the donor’s word on that line.

What the dollars do not measure

$13,378,363 is not a Hollywood PAC total and not box-office revenue. Industry pages group employers. A freelance actor and a series regular share this occupation string if they typed ACTOR.

Party is not stored in the occupation column. Open the ACTOR occupation page for recipient rows. Restated in compact millions, the occupation total is $13.4 million.

Using the hub

Cite $13,378,363, 52,289 contributions, and 1,461 donors together. A sentence that shows only the dollars hides that the money arrived in 52,289 pieces. Use the occupations index to compare ACTOR with ARTIST and MUSICIAN without merging them.

Unitemized receipts are omitted. Harvested facts have no cycle year. Live filters may change displayed sums. Source: Form 3/3X itemizations indexed on LobbyVault.

Limits

1,461 is a contributor-record count, not a unique-person estimate after name matching. Extra words (actor producer, retired actor) create parallel buckets when they do not normalize to ACTOR. ACTRESS, if stored separately, is not added here.

Do not treat about 36 itemizations per donor record as a typical giving cadence for all actors. It is an arithmetic ratio on this exact string.
